- Hypochlorous Acid is used to convert alkenes to chlorohydrins.
- Used in cosmetics such as baby products.
- Used in swimming pools.
- Used to generate sufficient quantities of safe disinfectant.
- Used in marine sanitation devices to convert seawater into HOCl.
- Used as a wound care agent.
- Used to treat various infections in pets and humans.
- hypochlorous acid can also be used in place of hand sanitizer with no irritating side effects and does not cause hand dermatitis.
Dosage
- HOCl is the scientific formula for hypochlorous acid, a weak acid similar to that of a mild citrus juice.
- HOCl is made naturally by white blood cells in all mammals for healing and protection.
- HOCl is a powerful oxidant that is effective against invading bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
- Generating HOCl by running electricity through a solution of saltwater was discovered in 1970s.
- HOCl is now used in healthcare, food safety, water treatment, and general sanitation.
Industrial Usage
Electrochemically activated (ECA) water is being extensively studied and considered as an alternative to chlorine for disinfection. Some researchers claim that ECA is by and large a chlorine solution, while others claim the presence of reactive oxygen species such as ozone and hydroxyl radicals in addition to chlorine. This study compares sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and ECA in terms of disinfection efficacy, trihalomethanes (THMs) formation, stability and composition. The studies were carried out under different process conditions (pH 5, 7 and 9, disinfectant concentrations of 2–5 mg/L and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration of 2–4 mg/L). The results indicated that in the presence of low DOC (2 mg/L) ECA showed better disinfection efficacy for Escherichia coli inactivation, formed lower THM and had better stability compared with NaOCl at both pH 5 and 7. Stability studies of stock solutions showed that over a period of 30 days, ECA decayed by only 5% while NaOCl decayed by 37.5% at temperatures of 4 °C. In a fresh ECA of 200 mg/L chlorine, about 5.3 mg/L ozone and 36.9 mg/L ClO2 were detected. The study demonstrates that ECA could be a suitable alternative to NaOCl where decentralized production and use are required.
Remarks
ALCOHOL-FREE
• Tested and found instantly kills 99.99% of common germs, viruses, and bacteria that may cause disease.
• HOCI will instantly oxidize and destroy the enzymes on the cell membrane of germs, bacteria and viruses. This causes structural changes to the germs, bacteria and viruses, killing them within seconds.
